About Andrea

Andrea Douglas is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with 13 years of counseling experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, anger, self-esteem, parenting, career issues, depression and coping with life changes.

Andrea helps people regain a sense of control and refocus when things feel overwhelming. She uses clear, practical steps so clients can start again and make changes that fit their daily life. Her work is direct and goal-oriented, aimed at helping people notice what’s not working and try new ways of responding.

Her style draws from several established methods rather than a single fixed model. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thought patterns that feed strong feelings and to practice different, more helpful responses. Client-Centered Therapy guides conversations so the client’s experience leads the pace and topics. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set short-term goals and identify small, workable changes to try right away.

Andrea also incorporates elements of the Gottman Method when relationship issues come up, focusing on communication patterns and practical skills for managing conflict. She lists attention to common life stresses such as compassion fatigue, abandonment, blended family issues, body image, commitment concerns, and infidelity among her focus areas.

Her approach is collaborative. She works with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts as those goals change over time.

How sessions work

Approach-driven online sessions and practical tools

Andrea commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in sessions. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches specific skills to change reactions to stress, anger and anxiety. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical steps and short-term goals to reduce conflict and move forward quickly.

She also uses Client-Centered techniques to keep the work grounded in the client’s own experience. That approach means the client’s priorities guide session topics and pace, and techniques are chosen together. Deciding which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process based on a person’s goals and preferences.

The practical upside of meeting online is fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping momentum between appointments. Confirm the exact session formats before you book, since the biography does not specify them. Online meetings can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, avoid travel time, and try therapeutic exercises in real-world settings. Andrea will discuss what will work best and adjust the approach as needs change.
